Book Recommendations // October 2024

BitterOldPunk picks – Saga: Compendium One / The Field Guide to Dumb Birds of North America / The World We Make by NK Jemisin

RapidEyeElectronics pick – In the Dream House by Carmen Maria Machado

Burn the Witch with Matches pick – Psychotic Reactions and Carburetor Dung

Roz Milner pick – I Am Not Sydney Poitier

Andy Mascola pick – Hollow by Owen Egerton

Fraser H pick – Berlin by Antony Bever

Anthony Gregory picks

JJ Skolnik pick – Empire of Normality

Neglected Books pick via Harehunterfield – A Dragon’s Life by Walker Hamilton (128p.) / Published after Hamilton’s death at 35. Samson, an old and unsuccessful actor, wanders through multiple circles of suburban English hell in a dragon costume he’s stolen. Funny & sad in equal parts.

Randy Resnick pick – Squeeze Me by Carl Hiaasen

Nihilistic Wrong Hordak pick – Half through The Axman’s Carnival by Catherine Chidgey / CW: domestic abuse / Cover says: delightful, imaginative. I’d add Chidgey, realistically, taints the humor & fun with an omnipresent specter of stochastic violence & bullying. It’s emotionally exhausting, to me, because it’s so sell written.

‪Harehunterfield‬ ‪pick – Roald Dahl’s Book of Ghost Stories

Noise Research pick – The Paranormal by Stan Gooch

Ilya S.
